Fair use rationale for Image:Wetrixbox.jpg edit

 

Image:Wetrixbox.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

I'll do this soon. ♦ jaguar 16:40, 1 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

  • " for the Nintendo 64 personal computers in 1998" - Nintendo 64 personal computers? Is this missing a comma or an and?
  • "and the Dreamcast Game Boy Color in 1999" - same here
  • " It received an 8/8/8/7 score from the Japanese magazine Famitsu Weekly" - the score is uncessecary in the lead, just condense to It received Famitsu's highest rating for a Western-developed title in years
  • "...to commission Zed Two to develop a sequel. It was the PlayStation 2 launch title Aqua Aqua, which made little alterations to the main gameplay" - these two sentences can easily be merged to improve flow
  • " Zed Two planned to have it as their first product before Vampire Circus" - might sound better as Zed Two planned release it before Vampire Circus
  • "As Zed Two looked for publishers, however, they learned a different lesson about the state of the industry" - this sounds somewhat informal
  • "This won Zed Two a deal with Ocean to publish two games: Vampire Circus and the puzzle game" - is this referring to Wetrix?
  • "so they intended for Wetrix to be very original" - this adverb is not needed
  • "needed to be done quickly to pay the bills" - informal, though you can change it to pay their bills
  • " The brothers were angry, Ste critical of how Imagineer did the water effects" - this doesn't read well
  • " Jeff Gerstmann of GameSpot bashed the earthquake mechanic " - informal
  • "Anne Royal of Computer Games Strategy Plus wrote a play-through could end in an instant if even a little bit of control of the chaos is lost" - what does this mean?
  • The article uses dmy and mdy dates inconsistently
    • It's all European date format, given the fact that it's developer and publisher are from the European nations of the UK and France. Cites introduced in the Legacy section had American dates, so I fixed that. 👨x🐱 (Nina CortexxCoco Bandicoot) 17:32, 1 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

I spotted numerous instances of informal language and some cases where sentences could be merged to improve flow, but nothing too major. It is comprehensive and mostly well written. I'll leave this on hold until the above issues are fixed.  jaguar 17:03, 1 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for addressing them so quickly. I've read through it again and am confident it now meets the GA criteria. Well done!  jaguar 00:19, 2 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
